Obviously, it’s a pipe dream in the present time.
Oh yeah, it won't happen for a long time to come. As I recall, there are no plans to open up anything south of the Perimeter to residential development any time soon.

Mind you, it won't be that long before there's nowhere else to go. Maybe 20 years from now it'll jump the highway but now that the province has made its decision on what kind of highway it's going to be, whoever decides to develop will have to cover the costs of the overpass at least partially. Or maybe sooner...I guess it depends on demand.
